Chapter 389: Chapter 292 Can You Marry Me?_2

However, the young man didn’t think much of it and after escorting Eve to the entrance of the public restroom, he waited at the doorway.

"Sigh..."

Inside the restroom, Eve finally relaxed.

However, just as Eve relaxed, a voice made her nerves instantly tense to the extreme!

It was an unfamiliar female voice, coming from behind her, expressing surprise.

"Are you... could you be that little Eve who was kidnapped?"

"...!"

Hearing this, Eve instinctively turned to look at the person behind her.

Then, as the stranger saw Eve’s face, she confirmed it.

"It really is you! I saw you on TV, your parents must be so heartbroken, having been looking for you for so long, it must have been very hard. You must be frightened too, being away from your parents, no child would not be scared. But it’s okay now because I will take you back."

The woman showed Eve an incredibly gentle and kind expression.

However, Eve felt fear looking at her.

Going back to her parents meant she would have to leave his side.

Eve felt afraid of this.

Then, Eve instinctively shook her head vehemently, denying,

"No! It’s not me, you’ve mistaken me for someone else!"

After saying this, Eve tried to run away but before she could, the woman had already grabbed her arm.

"Why? Why deny it? Don’t you want to go back to your parents? How could that be!? Oh, I get it, you must have been threatened and deceived by that damned kidnapper! Don’t worry, it’s all over, you don’t have to be afraid anymore."

The woman was very forceful, and Eve’s arm hurt, as if it were about to break.

Eve wanted to escape, but she couldn’t, she could only weakly call out,

"Uncle!"

"...! Let go!"

The next instant, his figure appeared and without a hint of hesitation, his palm struck the woman’s hand that was tightly gripping Eve.

"Ouch...!"

The woman let go in pain.

The young man immediately picked up Eve, intending to run outside.

But no matter how fast the young man moved, he could never outrun sound.

"Come quick! There’s a kidnapper kidnapping a child here!"

Instantly, this sharp voice spread throughout the entire station!

Everyone’s eyes were drawn by this voice, looking towards the young man.

Then, the young man holding Eve immediately became the target of public accusation.

"...!" With no time to lament, the young man could only try to break through to a less crowded area.

But...

"Catch him! He’s the kidnapper!"

"Damn it! Don’t let him get away!"

No matter how hard the young man tried, his body was still only at an average human level, so he was soon surrounded by a group of righteous individuals.

Following that, Eve in the young man’s arms saw countless large hands coming towards her, filling her entire field of vision in an instant!

Then, those hands grabbed her, as if fighting over something worthless, trying to forcefully snatch her out of the young man’s arms.

Fearing that Eve would get hurt, the young man could only let go helplessly.

And, in the moment he let go, he was swallowed by the crowd.

Countless punches greeted his face, making his vision blur instantly; the curses near his ear sounded so distant, and he only felt a mixture of sour, hot, and bitter sensations continuously rising.

Following that, the young man was knocked to the ground by a strong force, and thereafter countless feet fell like raindrops on every inch of his body.

Here, no one knew him, no one would support him; he was simply a kidnapper, a man whom everyone would want to condemn, a destroyer of others’ happiness, deserving of death.

So, even if they beat him to death right here, it wouldn’t be a problem but rather a good deed, a commendable act.

"...stop."

However, just when the crowd was about to do just that, a tender voice stopped them.

"Stop it! He’s... going to die!"

These words finally made everyone halt.

When Eve could see the young man again, he was lying motionless on the ground, utterly silent.

"...!"

However, before Eve could take a closer look at him, her view was blocked yet again by others.

After they stopped, they turned to look at Eve, who had called out, showing... a very gentle, kind smile.

"It’s okay now, there’s nothing to be afraid of anymore."

Smiling, they crowded around Eve like a series of high walls.

"That despicable kidnapper has been dealt with; you don’t have to be afraid of him anymore."

"It’s not like that..." Eve sobbed weakly, "He’s not a bad person; he never hurt me..."

However, these words did not alter the smiles on their faces.

"That despicable kidnapper! Not only did he kidnap, but he also deceived such a young child; he’s truly scum!"

"..." Eve realized then that no matter what she said, these people wouldn’t take her seriously.

They thought they were rescuing Eve, but none of them actually considered Eve’s own thoughts.

She couldn’t resist these people as they took her away from his side.

"That’s wonderful," they said jubilantly, "you can finally be back with your parents; a child can only find happiness back in their parents’ arms."

"Huh... who came up with such nonsense?"

However, at that moment, unexpectedly, the young man who should have been lying unconscious on the ground had gotten up unnoticed and moved to Eve’s side.

"What...!?" The crowd was shocked upon seeing this.

In that moment, the young man seized the opportunity and led Eve away.

As the others realized and hurriedly chased after them, they reached the station outside which only added to the chaos, and in that turmoil, the young man escaped with Eve...

...

"I’m sorry, uncle... it’s all my fault."

Eve now knelt before the young man, her eyes red with tears.

"No..." the young man shook his head, tending to his wounds as he sighed, "It was my lack of careful consideration that led us here, and if anyone, I should be the one apologizing. I’m sorry for making you live this way... you mustn’t have found your true self, did you?"

"..." Eve hesitated for a moment and then shook her head.

"I figured as much..."

"I don’t know what to do," Eve suddenly said, "It’s not really about living on the run and in constant fear; I’m just not that interested in those so-called wonderful things."

"Is that so?" the young man scratched his head, "This is going to be difficult then."

"Let’s try a different approach," Eve suggested, "Since I can’t find such things for myself... let’s fulfill your wishes, uncle. Unlike me, you must have a true self you like; perhaps I can find inspiration from that."

"My likes?" the young man shook his head, "I don’t really have anything I like..."

"Then! Let’s find it! I will help you find your true self, uncle. Also, I... have a request, can I speak?"

"What is it?"

At this moment, realizing how fearful she was of leaving him, how unwilling she was to be away from him, Eve finally understood.

If love meant liking the person one becomes in someone’s presence, then Eve’s love was quite clear.

So, she gathered her courage for the first time and confessed to the young man:

"Uncle, can you... marry me?"
